VIDEO: The air strike that ‘destroyed’ Boko Haram at night

The Nigeria air force has released a video of its destruction of a Boko Haram camp in northern Borno via an air strike on Sunday.

On Tuesday, Ayodele Famuyiwa, air force spokesman, had announced that the force successfully destroyed a new Boko Haram camp located between Malam Fatori and Kangarwa in northern Borno, during a night operation.

“The new camp is about 4-6km away from the BHT location attacked earlier on 20 August 2016 by NAF Mi-17 helicopter within the same vicinity in a similar night operation that led to the death of about 300 insurgents,” he had said.

“The post-strike battle damage assessment (BDA) mission had revealed that surviving BHTs converged at the new location.”

On Wednesday, the air force followed that statement up by releasing a one-minute-32-second video of the night raid.
